Geek Salad

When a book is very successful, they often make more books in that series. If it's even more successful, they often make a movie based on one or more of those books. If the movie is successful, then they make multiple movies based on the multiple books. Got all that? Well so do the Geek Salad crew as they discuss movie series based on book series in episode 240: Ian Fleming's Rings of Twilight Hunger.

Join Andy, Mike, Joe, and Katherine as they go over some of the good movie franchises, bad movie franchises (or bad attempts at franchises) and some that are more of a mixed bag. From Ian Fleming's super spy series to a rather unknown fantasy one about hobbits, they tackle all they can think of. Tolkien, himself, would approve of this super-sized episode... maybe. Hard to say with that one.

Don’t have the money to produce a quality Halloween costume based on a successful movie franchise?  Or do you have an idea for a costume, but you think it needs a little extra sexiness?  Then check out Geek Salad Episode 201: It’s the Slutty Pumpkin Charlie Brown! where Andy, Mike, Joe, Katherine (not to be confused with Catherine the Great), Todd, and Jim discuss their ideas for off-brand character costumes and the sexiest of sexy costumes (not really!)

Note:  As with every show recorded since the Pandemic, the sound on this one is a bit of a mixed bag.  It’s just a Trick while we treat you to this discussion!

Settle down in your favorite little Hobbit hole and break out some lembas bread, as it is time for Geek Salad to venture into Middle Earth with episode 125: Tom Bombadil Ain't In This One, Either.Yes, not even the godfather of all nerd culture, Tolkien, is safe from the Geek Salad crew, this time consisting of Ranger Andy, his Elvish maiden Autumn, Rider of Rohan Joe, and Man of Gondor Mike.

The crew take on the books (ever so briefly as they can be a bit... what's the word... boring), the animated specials (which can be a bit... '70s), and finally all six of Peter Jackson's films. They cover the good and the bad, as well as a discussion on the excessive nature of turning The Hobbit into 3 films.

(Oh, and in case you're wondering, yes, episode 126 was posted before 125. Technical issues, combined with the need to get the wrestling show out by WrestleMania, meant that 126 had to go up in a more timely manner)

As we bid a fond farewell to 2014 and charge head-first into 2015, Geek Salad takes a quiet moment to reflect on the past year with a Side Salad. Join Andy and Mike G as they experiment with video chatting by using far... FAR... to much equipment.

The duo go over the year in TV, Movies, and even a bit of music. Then they look forward to 2015 with some of their most anticipated films. So, as you await their next full episode, enjoy this belated Christmas/Hanukkah/Kwanzaa/etc gift. Now, 2015, you better be better then 2014... or else! (cue angry fist-shaking)
